Hi Doug,

It seems like the only difference in the relevant area is that the tinier cluster gets smoothed away.  Is it often the case that gmlfit and intergroupavg-sess have such different results?  I wonder what could cause this.  It seems very dramatically different to me.   Unlike this contrast, another contrast that I ran was very similar to its corresponding intergroupavg-sess output.  One explanation I have heard is that jackknifing could make the difference.  Is there a way to turn on or off jackknifing in mri_glmfit?

Thanks,
Rob

oh and I should mention that the glm one is constained to rACC and dACC, but the intergroupavg is not. -Rob

Hello,

I've comparing results of output from intergroupavg-sess with output from mri_glmfit, and the difference seems to be too huge to be accountable just from differences between the two programs.  

I attached images that go along with the commands below.  What do you think could be the cause of these huge differences?  Are there any parameters that might reduce the difference?

Thanks,
Rob

intergroupavg-sess \
    -group1 BwGroupNormalsError5 \
    -group2 BwGroupAspError5 \
    -space sph \
    -spacedir sph_sm20 \
    -intergroup BwGroupError5 \
    -analysis EMerror \
    -contrast ASevASc

(Currently ran this because so I could then adjust the threshold using monte carlo data.  The results of this should I think be the same or similar to the intergroupavg results)
